How does my child get a tennis scholarship at a US college? What do we as parents need to consider? How can we best support our child in this multifaceted process, from the initial vague idea to the concrete step across the pond? These are just some of the questions we suddenly found ourselves asking in 2023 when our daughter Mia expressed her wish to go to the USA on a tennis scholarship after graduating from high school. I wrote a five-part series on our blog about her journey, documenting how Mia, and especially we as parents, experienced the entire application process right up to her departure. Currently, we're preparing everything for our son Tom's stay at college in Alabama in the summer of 2025. And that presents some new challenges as well!
Today I would like to warmly invite college tennis webinar for parents on Tuesday, April 8, 2025, at 7:30 p.m. Sandy Franz from Keystone Sports and me your questions in this free and informal webinar. And I'm sure you'll have plenty, right? Whether you've just started looking into college tennis or are already in the middle of the application process, we will certainly be able to answer your questions. And we'll do so openly and honestly, just as you've come to expect from us.

TennisTraveller- Owner and mother of a "Student Athlete"
I'm not just involved in tennis through TennisTraveller . As a mom of a tennis-mad family with three kids, it wasn't really surprising that our eldest daughter, Mia, wanted to go to a US college on a tennis scholarship after graduating from high school. Or so it seemed... Because quite a few things turned out to be very unexpected and different than anticipated. Currently, we're in the middle of the onboarding process for our son, Tom, who will be going to college in Alabama in the summer of 2025. So, we're still very much "in the thick of it"!
For those who would like to delve deeper, we have compiled all the blog articles from our "College Tennis" series here. Enjoy!
